Anything that doesn't involve hair removal or a man holding a filthy mop over a woman's head to prove it does not drip. At the moment that is Diners, Drive-In's and Dives. I have a feeling Lucy and Ricky will be next. I caught their pregnancy announcement episode last week. I always loved that one. So funny that they could not say pregnant on TV. That would cause an outrage!

It really was a ground breaking show, on more than account. People don't give it enough credit because of Lucy's domestic role.

Movie/TV Trivia FYI... I'd always heard Robert Bloch based Norman Bates on real life serial killer Ed Gein. Not surprising. About 200 serial killers depicted in movies in and tv are based on Gein BUT nothing about Norman screams flesh lamp/skin suit. I had also heard he was based on a man named Calvin Beck. He had a Science Fiction/Fantasy Magazine in the late 60's - mid 70's called Castle of Frankenstein. Based on what I just read, it makes complete sense. He was an adult male with an over bearing mother who followed him everywhere. She went to his classes with him in college. She came with him to work. She followed him to parties. If he managed to get out without her, she called every 45 minutes to check on him. She had no life outside of her child/grown son. When people came to visit him at home he would only crack the door, look around all paranoid, and rarely let them in. If he did, people said his mother would go bat isht and start screaming and ranting the whole time.

Yep. That about sums it up.

DaVinci's Demons. I thought I had some Mr Selfridge episodes left to watch but I guess I'm done with Season 2! : ( Maybe I will give The Paradise a try.
Watched a few episodes of The Paradise. I like it but not as much as Mr Selfridge. It doesn't have as much comedic relief from the seriousness of the times. But it's enjoyable enough

Wth? Mountain Monsters... Hmmm. That's a reality show I will not be watching. If the Appalachian Mountains had more monsters/monster sightings than any place in the world, I think I would know about it.

Ncis la (very good episode this week!)
ncis (I'm sad to report that I probably won't watch the NOLA spin off - I don't care that much)
person of interest (I find the Root storyline confusing, I really wish they'd give us some real info on that I do love Camryn Manheim)
